Thermal specifications at 9900K

I’m planning a 3x 480 Rad mixed loop for my CPU and GPU. I need to know if running 480 per loop is sufficient to keep my 9900K stable in the 70s, or if doing it together would help more.

Are you referring to 280mm radiators with two 140mm fans each, or four 120mm fans in a set?

Air coolers help maintain a comfortable 70s temperature for your 9900K.

I don’t have a cooling fan; I’ll use three 480-watt units.

He believed the simplest cooling method was sufficient (though the top level of that group). If you can't handle such a large rad, your pump might be faulty.

@jstudrawa suggested that a good air cooler should also handle a large radiator effectively.

In the end, a room temperature around 74°F should help regulate the liquid's heat, regardless of your setup.
